Apologies for the ambiguity.  In the org, we can use *text* and the
word "text" would be bold in the html output.  I was wondering if
there is a markup that would change the color, eg, \{red}[text], or
something of that sort.  I don't think it exists.  If I wanted to
implement this myself, what should I start with.  Ditto with
highlights (say, highlight text yellow).

Something more on org-mode's line would be like setting a variable
#+ color=red
and with some new symbols, say ^text^, the color of "text" would be
red in the html output.

Hope this clears things up.
